Designed by Carrere & Hastings for George L. Rives who was a lawyer and assistant Secretary of State, and served as a board member for Columbia University, various hospitals, the Astor Library, the Lenox Library and eventually the New York Public Library. It was designed after Parisian town houses built on the Place Vendôme. In 1926, the Rives would sell the home to the Gerry family who would stay there until 1956 when it was sold to the then Kingdom of Greece. It is now the Offices of the Consul-general for the Hellenic Republic in New York. The George Rives Residence was landmarked on May 19th, 1981.
